I just got Ballionaire on my desktop and it’s more fun than I ever thought it would be. It’s a Balatro situation where at first it didn’t sound like a fun game to play, then I played it and it’s up my alley. Only things I personally don’t like about it are the dancing stick figure things on the main menu or when a run is over, but that’s just personal preference more than a critic of the game.
I also got into the 2.01 update of Pokemon Rogue Emerald (Emerald Rouge?) and even though it’s a lot different, I’m enjoying it so far.
Besides that, have not doneuch outside of mobile gaming since I have to RMA my deck.
Needed a full remake tbh. Some odd bugs as well, genuinely baffling in places. A couple of the new textures look worse than the old ones. A quick save/load feature would have gone a long way at the Drowned Abbey. SR2 combat isn’t hard (once you realise that the blocked attacks are still damaging the enemy despite having absolutely no feedback) but everything is so much more of a chore than the first game, and there’s nothing outside the main path to discover.
Tomb Raider 3 Remaster.
A game that makes you say “this level is a pain in the arse” on every level, but at least it has quick save and load. How I ever did this on PS1 with limited saves I’ll never know.
Astro Bot.
A glorified advert for all things Playstation, but a nice trip down memory lane regardless, as well as being fun to play.
Project Zomboid just released version 42 beta, so all PZ all the time for me. I’m just living the farming life and getting into the new crafting system in between smacking zombies. Very satisfying.
The Greece DLC released about a month ago, and I just picked it up in the last few days. Lots of fun so far, the map is starting to get pretty big. I’m planning to do another long haul across the whole map at some point.
My daughter is a bit older but loved Tinykin - its on sale for around $6 right now and is a great sandbox environment to play around in while you explore the various rooms with creatures that help you get to your next objective.
Not single-player, but snipperclips is good, relaxed puzzle fun.
Goals are visual and easy to understand, each player controls a shape and they can cut each other to try and fit a predefined “hole” together. There are some physics puzzles based on cutting your shape in clever ways too.
Mistakes have no consequence and often lead to funny interactions. You can’t really lose, you just reset your shape and try again.
I’m not sure which ones he was into at 4yo specifically, but my son’s Switch favorites include…
Super Mario Odyssey Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle Celeste Minecraft Yoshi’s Crafted World Letterquest Big Brain Academy NES Arcade SNES Arcade
Of those, the ones I would say mught meet your super-chill criteria are…
Super Mario Odyssey (yeah, you can die, but you just respawn and can spend tons of time just running around aimlessly) Celeste (normally not, but there’s a lovely Assist Mode) Yoshi’s Crafted World (there’s a no-fail mode) Big Brain Academy (if they can handle being scored on things, without taking it too seriously).
